Entry #79Mostly did boxing training today. Practiced combinations. I've realizedthat in matches I give it my all in the first round, and after that I'mtired. That's why I lost the fight with Marty in September. Well, andmy braces ripping up my mouth, but that's no excuse. I should trywearing out the opponent for a few rounds, and not waste energy.Afterwards, did 15 one-handed push-ups. But I can only get up to 8 onmy left arm. Improving faster than expected, however.

PE was hilarious today. The teacher brought out pogo-sticks,hula-hoops, and jump-ropes. I just used the jump-rope at first, whichis something I should get for home-use to practice good footwork. Aftera bit Rene brought out a medicine ball and we took turns throwing it ashard as we could at each other, and the first person to drop it wouldlose. Was pretty tiring, actually. We had a crowd around us after abit. No one lost, though.
